Primary brain tumors that were the most severe and aggressive were called glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Cancers are caused in part by aberrant expression of circular RNA. Often referred to as competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA), circRNA molecules act as "miRNA sponges" in cells by decreasing the inhibitory impact of miRNA on their target genes and hence raising the expression levels of those genes.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST), driven by KIT and PDGFRA mutations, are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Although tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have advanced treatment, resistance mutations and off-target toxicity limit their efficacy. This study develops covalent TKIs targeting drug-resistant GIST through structure-based design, synthesis, and biological evaluation.

Background: Our study aimed to explore the specific functions and potential mechanisms of miR-224-5p in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Methods: We first analyzed the expression of miR-224-5p in NSCLC patients and cell lines through the GEO database and qRT-PCR analysis. Then, we used MTT assays, wound healing assays, Transwell assays, and western blotting to evaluate the effects of miR-224-5p on NSCLC cell proliferation, migration, invasion, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are crucial stromal cells in the tumor microenvironment, affecting cancer growth, angiogenesis, and matrix remodeling. Developing an effective in vitro tumor model that accurately recapitulates the dynamic interplay between tumor and stromal cells remains a challenge. In this study, a 3D bioprinted fibroblast - mediated heterogeneous breast tumor model was created, with tumor cells and fibroblasts in a bionic matrix.

Radix Codonopsis (Dangshen), derived from the dried root of plants in the Campanulaceae family, is a widely used Chinese herbal medicine. It is renowned for its pharmacological effects, including tonifying the middle qi, invigorating the spleen, benefiting the lungs, enhancing immunity, and nourishing the blood. Codonopsis extract is frequently incorporated into health products such as tablets and capsules, making it accessible for daily health maintenance.
